Mandates according to voter intentions for parliamentary election in Norway 2008-2017

The statistic shows the number of mandates according to voting intentions for the Norwegian parliamentary elections from 2008 to 2017. The surveys on the current voting intentions for the Norwegian parliamentary election were conducted annually on a monthly basis by different market research companies in order to determine voting intentions for Norwegian political parties. A selection of Norwegian voters were asked to give their vote as if the elections were taking place today. Shown here is the number of mandates calculated according to voting intentions in August in each year. In August 2017, the social-democratic party 'Arbeiderpartiet' would have received 53 representants in the Parliament. The conservative party 'Høyre' (42 seats) and the liberal 'Fremskrittspartiet' (25 seats) ranked second and third respectively.
